Apps :: unmet dependencies during apache install



I've decided to bring an old pentium II 348Mhz, 64 RAM back to life (hopefully) as a personal web server.
I'm new to DSL (though very impressed so far) and new to any web hosting.

I'm trying to get apache installed. Initially via download of 1.3.* from the web and then ver 2.0.54 from myDSL.

I get the same error with both and I don't know if it's not possible to run on this machine or if it's something else.

I unpack the tar ball, etc then run:
Code Sample
sudo apt-get install apache


then get following error message:
Quote
"some packages could not be installed. This may mean you have requested an impossible situation or you are using an unstable version...
Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that the package is simply not installable and a bug report against that package should be filed.
The following information may help resolve the situation:
Sorry but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
  apache: depends: apache-common (>=1.3.26-0) but it is not going to be installed
  Depends: apache-common (<1.3.27-0) but it is not going to be installed
  Depends: Perl 15 or
                  Perl 1 but it is not going to be installed
E: sorry, broken package


Any info would be apreciated. I'm mainly trying to install apache because there seems to be much more information available than for Monkey web server.

Thanks

Hmm,
Maybe DSL even simpler than I thought?!
Looks like apache is installed under myDSL and httpd is in /opt/wwwroot/bin/httpd?!

This may all be more clear in the daylight! Any info would still be appreciated.
